The SFO Museum Application Programming Interface (API)

Today we are announcing the availability of the SFO Museum Application Programming Interface (API). The API allows developers to access SFO Museum-related data programatically over the internet. The SFO Museum API has actually been around for a while now. It’s what powers the object counts as you add and remove filters on the advanced search page on the Aviation Collection website and is how items are added to and removed from your shoebox from both the Collection and Mills Field websites. The various SFO Museum websites are API consumers just like any other application. We are pleased to be able to (finally) open up access to the API to you and we look forward to seeing what you create with it.
